Dentures in Belleville, IL

Smile Team Dental is committed to giving you the beautiful smile you deserve! Our premier dentists Dr. Kirk Quigless or Dr. Jon Sones offer custom-crafted partial and full dentures in Belleville, IL. Dentures are artificial dental devices that can replace all or some missing teeth.

Denture Types

We'll personally meet with you to determine the best types of dentures for your dental needs. Full dentures are fit to replace all of your upper and lower teeth whereas a partial consists of metal framework and is supported by the remaining natural teeth.

Full dentures are placed as either:

Conventional: Placed after teeth are removed and gums have healed; patients are without teeth for several months during the healing process

Immediate: Measurements and models are taken before the teeth-removal process and dentures are placed right after teeth are removed; we'll realign them months later because of natural reshaping during the healing process

Excellent Denture Care

We custom-fabricate dentures to feel and look as natural as possible. During the first few weeks, it may feel uncomfortable to eat or speak; however, over time you'll become adjusted to your dentures. Dr. Kirk Quigless or Dr. Jon Sones are always available if your dentures feel too bulky and loose. If you're experiencing soreness, irritation, discomfort or excessive saliva, then call our office immediately.

The Missouri Dental Board and the ADA do not recognize the treatment of TMJ (neuromuscular dentistry) or cosmetic dentistry as a specialty. Further, the ADA does not require any additional training of dentists who perform or advertise these procedures. Dr. Quigless practices general dentistry in St. Louis, Missouri but he has many continuing education hours in cosmetic and TMJ therapy procedures at the prestigious Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Education.
